"Luis and his team did a great job replacing the old wooden boards on our ground level deck with Trex. They also inspected the support structure and replaced a couple of the joists as needed. Then they installed a vapor barrier under the deck and replaced our bench seat with Trex as well. Throughout the job Luis kept us well informed of their plans and when they expected to arrive on the job each day. All of the work was completed on time and with great attention to detail."

"They repainted my shutters and hung up a few shutters that had fallen down. They painted two interior hallways and an interior stairway. They did a perfect job! I plan on hiring them again to do more painting around my house!"

"I would highly recommend Groovy Hues to anyone looking for high quality stain and paint services that wonâ t break the bank. The Groovy Hues team is professional and easy to work with. They did an exterior stain job on our large fence, and we were so pleased with the quality and price of the work, that we also hired Groovy Hues to paint our master bathroom. We look forward to using Groovy Hues again in the future!"

"The owner , Rebecca Conner, responded very quickly to discuss the scope of work. The bid for the deck work was emailed to me within a day or two of her visiting the house to discuss the scope of work. She was very helpful in suggesting stain and deck paint colors that look great.

Ray and Joe showed up when they said they would and always phoned when they could not make it due to bad weather. They were both courteous and professioinal. I was very impressed how conscientious they were in their work. They often said that "it has to be done right". It is difficult to find such dedicated people these days and I really appreciated them.

I highly recommend them.

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.
